What Youll Do

• Understand business problems, identify root causes, and define measurable success criteria.
• Select the right technical approach based on the problemnot a preferred technology.
• Build end-to-end AI and ML solutions, from data exploration and experimentation to deployment and monitoring.
• Develop solutions using classical machine learning, deep learning, LLMs, computer vision, forecasting, anomaly detection, and optimization, as relevant.
• Build reliable production systems, APIs, data pipelines, evaluation frameworks, and monitoring capabilities.
• Evaluate solutions against business outcomes, model performance, reliability, latency, scalability, and cost.
• Collaborate with software engineers, data engineers, product teams, and domain experts.
• Provide technical direction, review implementations, and mentor team members.

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of experience building machine learning, AI, data science, or intelligent software solutions.
• Proven experience solving ambiguous, real-world problems and delivering solutions into production.
• Strong programming and software engineering skills, particularly in Python.
• Solid foundation in machine learning, statistics, experimentation, and model evaluation.
• Experience across multiple areas such as predictive ML, Generative AI, NLP, computer vision, forecasting, or optimization.
• Hands-on experience with ML frameworks such as scikit-learn, PyTorch, or TensorFlow.
• Experience building production ML pipelines, APIs, containerized services, and cloud-based solutions.
• Strong SQL and data analysis skills.
• Practical understanding of LLMs, RAG, agents, evaluation, guardrails, and their appropriate use cases.
• Ability to explain technical decisions and trade-offs to both technical and business stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Azure or other major cloud platforms.
• Experience working with structured, unstructured, visual, time-series, or multimodal data.
• Exposure construction, engineering, manufacturing, or other operationally complex industries.
• Experience mentoring engineers or leading technical solution design.
